Grandmas Boy - JP's office

To start with, this won't work for everyone mostly because not everyone works from home like I do. I used to have this constant, nagging lower back pain when I used to sit at a desk working an office job. It wasn't the sort of back pain where you've pulled a muscle after a botched deadlift or you just twisted the wrong way picking up a sock off the floor, but it was the sort of pain where it just felt like there was a warm knot in your lower back that was not-quite-painful but incredibly uncomfortable. Hard to explain. It was hard to sit still and I had to change sitting positions after every 5-10 minutes which made it difficult to actually focus on work. I strengthened my core and tried various stretches but it never went away. This went on for years until I started working from home. I figured, instead of trying to find the perfect way to sit, why sit at all? Maybe humans weren't built to sit for long periods of time but I sure don't have problems lying down! I got myself a laptop stand, started working while lying down, and I've never had lower back issues since. I wouldn't mind having JP's set up in Grandma's Boy either actually ( [VIDEO] ). Monitors at eye level to eliminate neck strain, seat all the way reclined to relieve lower back pressure, and keyboard at just the right height. Perfect.

Your basically just described a scene featuring Joel David Moore (as JP) in Grandma's Boy: [VIDEO] I still think of that setup years after having seen the movie.

At one focus is suspended a huge, omnidirectional, ten thousand Watt speaker system. At the other focus lies an elaborate, 21 screen wrap-around display connected to a Mac Pro cluster. In this dream, I am seated in a comfortable recline at the computer station while thundering trance emanates from the sound system and is parabolically focused upon my exact location. Ah, so basically the traditional "Grandma's Boy" setup[0]. Yes, I think a lot of us share that dream. The more monitors, the better. [VIDEO]
